    Hi All,

    1st time Tundra owner here. I had a 2004 Taco back in the days and actually wheeled it pretty hard. This one will be a family hauler, street truck for the most part.

    Anyway, Just bought a new Platinum CM 4x4. It came with spray on bed liner & Factory steps. So far I'm loving it except for the crappy gas mileage =). It doesn't see many miles a month so it should be ok.

    Already started the MOD list.

    Already on the Truck :
    • Bed Mat
    • OEM bed extender
    On Order
    • TRD Pro grill color matched
    • Bakflip MX4
    • Philips LED headlamps
    Wish List
    • 3" Lift
    • Aftermarket wheels + Tires
    I will be in here doing more research on this truck.

    **My Build Thread https://www.tundras.com/threads/bluebottles-16-plat-cm-build.7379/ **

    Can't have an intro thread without a pic at least!
    (I'll get some better pics later...)

    Thanks for the warm welcomes!

    I love the platinum but don't care too much for all the chrome. I'll be replacing the handles and mirror caps with body colored in the near future. Get some black wheels and dip the emblems black.
